What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
AnyCut application built from apps-for-android source.
Jelly bean based emulator. Tried both ARM-based and Intel Atom (x86-based) 
emulator on Linux(Ubuntu) and Windows.

Please provide any additional information below.
This app works perfectly in Android v 4.0.3 (ICS) and lower versions

Issue resolved, explained below:
Logcat reports that ActivityManager crashed with error "Can't use 
FLAG_RECEIVER_BOOT_UPGRADE here", although the only intent flag set in Anycut 
application is FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP.
The reason is that in jelly bean (4.1.1_r1), both these flags have same value.
frameworks/base/core/java/android/content/Intent.java:
public static final int FLAG_RECEIVER_BOOT_UPGRADE = 0x04000000;
public static final int FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP = 0x04000000;

Anycut did not throw this error while running in earlier Android versions 
because the constant values were different:
public static final int FLAG_RECEIVER_BOOT_UPGRADE = 0x08000000;
public static final int FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP = 0x04000000; 

Anyway, Anycut is sends this intent as broadcast, and not launch an activity 
directly. So there is no point in setting any activity-related flag like 
FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP. The app works well after removing this flag.
